Skate and Locative Media

Skate and Locative Media

Mais um projeto aliando mídias locativas, espaço urbano e música. Informado pelo site do coletivo Dank, o mesmo grupo que realizou o projeto Sonic City, já apontado nesse Carnet e em meus últimos artigos. O atual projeto, Musique Concrete, de Simon Morris alia produção musical em derivas com skates pelo espaço urbano. Vejam a descrição abaixo:

Simon Morris (US/France) is a new media artist who works with interactive instruments and new interfaces. Musique Concrete is an interactive performance piece which explores urban landscapes, skateboarding and sound. Mounted underneath the skateboard is a wireless device and sensors which enable the rider to modify sounds in realtime. The movements of the skateboarder determines the soundtrack of the city. The result is a musical composition which transforms the skateboarder into a composer. Investigating new forms of musical expression, Musique Concrete examines technology and its role as a socially engaged art practice. He has conducted live performances at Eyebeam, NYC, the Article Biennale 2006 in Stavanger, Norway, Lemurplex in NYC and the Kiasma Museum in Helsinki, Finland.”

Lembra a performance de Fernando Llanos, com skate, música e projeção com retratei no post sobre o Arte.Mov.
